Hi Julien,

What version of gcc/g++/gfortran are you using and on which architecture?

I get the same exact behavior as you but only when I compile with gcc
4.1.x or 4.2.x on i386. I started seeing this relatively recently
(within the last few months) on RHEL5 with gcc 4.1.2 but did not
bother pursuing any further at the time because it was limited to
those versions of gcc for me.

I think I may have suspected

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/c9954a15bc03

at the time I first starting seeing this crash, but like I said I
never bothered pursuing any further.
